Joe01 Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 We are looking to take a cruise in the last week of August. We're wanting to do a ship from Florida but I'm not really sure what is the best option. We've done Oasis Class predominantly for years now but would be interested in something different. But I'm not blown away by the choices in Florida. The ships that are of most interest (Mariner & Freedom) are both on shorter itineraries which sucks. Granted, Mariner is a 6 nighter but would be better if it were 7 given I'd be flying out from Scotland. Frustrating that this is the summer when Symphony is in Europe, if she was still in Miami, she'd be the obvious choice. Adventure has a good price and is a 7 nighter, but I've heard negative reviews about her and she isn't AMPed. We're Playmakers fans but it's not a dealbreaker. Any idea?

jbrinkm Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Could you add more of what you are looking for? What did you like about Oasis class that you might not want to give up to sail on a smaller ship (other than the slight preference for a Playmakers)? Age(s) of the cruisers traveling with you, if any? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barjpoe Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 What about doing a B2B on those ships that do short cruises? MichelleB1234 and Cactus527 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost suggested that but then saw that Freedom has the exact same itinerary (Coco Cay and Nassau) for its 3 day and 4 day cruises, so if ports are important to @Joe01 that might not appeal to him...

RoyalGreek Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 There is absolutely nothing wrong with Adventure of the Seas. One of my wife’s favorites. We sailed on her multiple times and enjoyed every second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid4c4 Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 We were on the Adventure for a late August,2022 cruise and really enjoyed it. We're doing an almost identical cruise this year on the Grandeur of the Seas. The Lady Grandeur is the smallest and oldest ship of the line. Probably not the best if you have children who want all the entertainment and toys. However we go for the ocean and the cruise so the Lady G is perfect for us. Good luck no matter which ship you choose. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
